(ANSA) - ROME, APR 16 - The Turin city council has approved a regulation banning people from smoking within a five-metre radius of another person outdoors, unless they specifically consent to it.
    Smoking in indoor public places in Italy is already banned.
    "It's a sensible rule," said Turin Mayor Stefano Lo Russo.
    "It's a question of respecting those who don't smoke and it's also a way to promote a culture of reciprocal respect.
    "Turin is not the first city to take an initiative of this kind and I think others will too". (ANSA).
